Let's hear it for birthdays and the American Cancer Society!
We are always exceedingly grateful to all of our sponsors at Cool Mom Picks, big and small, because they are the ones who allow us to do what we do here. But there's one in particular that we want to give an extra-special shout-out to, because we so love everything they're about.

The American Cancer Society is continuing their excellent More Birthdays campaign, in celebration of many cancer survivors who get to keep blowing out those candles every year--including a dear friend who just celebrated her five year "anniversary" yesterday. (Whoo Jurene!) The campaign is optimistic, it's uplifting, and we're honored that we get to be a part of it, with the Birthday Q&A Conversation. Click over for fun, engaging questions from us and some of our favorite bloggers, and join the conversation.

Our question to you right now: Do you celebrate birthdays differently since having kids?

Click over to see Kristen's answer, and we'd love to hear your own. And keep an eye out for the ACS banners around our site with new questions every week.

Hey, who doesn't love birthdays? - Liz + Kristen
